==Early life and family==
[[File:Alyque Padamsee, Shazahn Padamsee at the Bob Dylan tribute by Mukul Deora (1).jpg|thumb|Padamsee with her father [[Alyque Padamsee|Alyque]] in May 2012]]

Padamsee's father [[Alyque Padamsee]] was a veteran theater actor who was born into a traditional family from the [[Kutch]] region of Gujarat.<ref>[https://www.deccanherald.com/entertainment/alyque-padamsee-man-who-wore-703433.html Alyque Padamsee: Man who wore].

My father, Jafferseth, owned 10 buildings and also ran a glassware business. My mother, Kulsumbai Padamsee, ran a furniture business. Anything I wanted was there for the asking. We were eight children in all but I, being born after three daughters, was pampered most. Among Gujarati families, it was only the Padamsees and the royal house of Rajpipla. At school, I learnt to speak in English. Later, our parents learnt the language from us. All that I am today is because of what I learnt at school. Miss Murphy, who ran the school, was an inspirational figure for me.}}</ref> In 2011, Shahzahn revealed that she is inspired by [[Buddhism]] and is more spiritual than religious, adding, "I believe in God.

[[File:Shazahn at rwitc awards.jpg|thumb|Padamsee in 2012]]

After appearances in several stage performances including her father's play ''Unspoken Dialogues'', Shazahn Padamsee appeared in several national advertisements, whilst auditioning for roles in Hindi films. After a film with Vivek Vaswani failed to materialise, she successfully auditioned for the part in [[Yash Raj Films]]' ''[[Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year]]'' opposite [[Ranbir Kapoor]].<ref name="auditions">{{cite web |author=Kulkarni, Onkar |year=2010 |title=I play the love interest in Rocket Singh: Shazahn Padamsee |publisher=[[Mid-Day]] |access-date=3 January 2011 |url=http://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/2009/dec/111209-shazahn-padamse-interview.htm?zcc=rl}}</ref> Shazhan played Sherena in the film, the first customer who treats the titular character with respect during his job as a salesman.

Her second and third films were released on the same day, both being films in [[Tamil language|Tamil]] and [[Telugu language|Telugu]] respectively.

'''St. Michael's Church''' is one of the oldest [[Indian Catholics|Catholic]] churches in the [[Mahim]] suburb of Mumbai (Bombay), India.

Because the church is at the junction of Lady Jamshetjee Road and [[Mahim Causeway]] it is sometimes referred to as '''Mahim Church'''.<ref name="Marynews">{{cite web | work=Mary Page News | publisher=[[University of Dayton]] | date=26 January 2001 |url=http://campus.udayton.edu/mary/news01/20010126.html | title=Mary in the Secular Press}}</ref>

As of 2023 the Parish priest was Bernard Lancy Pinto.<ref>[https://www.stmichaelsmahim.com/clergy St Michael’s official website]</ref>

[[File:St. Michael's Church, Mahim.JPG|thumb|Interior of St. Michael's Church, Mahim (Mumbai, India)]]
Initially known as ''São Miguel'', the original structure at St Michael's is said to have been built as a convent in 1534 by António do Porto, a church builder of the [[Franciscan Order]].<ref name="mahagov">{{cite web | first= T.

A picture of the [[Blessed Virgin]] was rescued from the church and was taken to St Michael's.<ref name="Mumbai.org website"/> From 1739 to 1761, St Michael's served as a refuge to the popular [[icon]] of the [[Virgin Mary]] which is now placed at the present-day [[Basilica of Our Lady of the Mount|Basilica of Our Lady of the Mount of]] [[Bandra]].

In 1853, St Michael's Church witnessed a struggle of ownership between Bishop Anastasius Hartmann and the [[Portuguese padroado]] order. St Michael's was in control of the [[Apostolic vicariate|vicars apostolic]] for nearly 60 years. In 1853, a discontented group decided that the control be handed back to the ''Padroado'' system. To prevent this, Hartmann - as the vicars' leader - went to the church and declared that "he would rather die a martyr than surrender the church to the schismatics". Hartmann and his followers stayed in the church with enough food and water for 15 days. His opponents laid "siege" to the church during this period, blocking all entrances. On the 15th day, civil authorities intervened and insisted that the church be reopened. Following this, Hartmann lost control of the church, passing it to the ''padroado'' order.<ref>{{cite book | title=A History of Christianity in India | first=Stephen | last=Neill | pages=290–1 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Xi-tvrYbYxMC&q=St.+Michael%27s+Bombay&pg=PA290 | year=2002 | publisher=[[Cambridge University Press]] | isbn=0-521-89332-1}}</ref>

On Wednesdays novena prayers to [[Our Lady of Perpetual Succour]] are held. Some of them offer wax figures of what they desire; for example, a wax house.

== Reported "Bleeding" Christ picture ==
{{History of Mumbai}}
On 27 June 2008, thousands of devotees visited St. Michael's to see the picture of [[Jesus]] called "the Divine Mercy". The picture showed some red spots which were believed to be blood near the heart of Jesus. The spots were noticed on the day at 08:30PM, on the occasion of the feast of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, and were termed a "miracle" by devotees. Not only Christians, but also Hindus and Muslims from Maharashtra and the neighboring states of Goa, Karnataka, and Gujarat, visited the Church to catch a glimpse of the picture. The queue to entering St. Michael's extended more than a kilometer.<ref name ="IBN" /><ref name="mid day" />

Parish Priest Father Raphael and Father Doneth D'Souza from the St. Michael's church as well as [[Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Bombay|Archbishop]] cardinal [[Oswald Gracias]] declined the miracle claim. Fr. D'Souza explained: "It's not a blood stain and it's also not a miracle. Every image of Divine Mercy has a red halo around the heart and in this case, the red colour has run because of the moisture in the air. It will look like a blood stain, but it's not."<ref name ="IBN">{{cite web | title=Devotees flock to Mahim church to see 'bleeding' Jesus | work=[[CNN-IBN]] |url=http://ibnlive.in.com/news/devotess-flock-to-mahim-church-to-see-bleeding-jesus/67921-3.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100302085819/http://ibnlive.in.com/news/devotess-flock-to-mahim-church-to-see-bleeding-jesus/67921-3.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=2 March 2010 | date=28 June 2008 | access-date=24 December 2008}}</ref><ref name="mid day">{{cite web |url=http://www.mid-day.com/news/2008/jun/300608news2.htm | title=Bleeding Jesus is not a miracle: church | date=30 June 2008 | access-date=24 December 2008 | work=[[MiD DAY]] | last=Singh | first=Varun}}</ref>

The image was removed and sent to a scientific analysis on the orders of Oswald Gracias. The result of that study was released in the September archdiocesan weekly and it said that the tests "established that there are no traces of blood in the red rays emanating from the Heart of Jesus in this image of Divine Mercy". Monsoon humidity and changes in the air quality were the suspected causes. Oswald Gracias did not explain the exact reasons.<ref>''No blood in bleeding Jesus’ picture: Study'' September 3, 2008 Indian Catholic</ref>

'''Right of Passage over Indian Territory''' (Portugal v. India) was a 1960 judgment of the [[International Court of Justice]] (ICJ) in the case of Portugal's assertion to a right of passage over Indian territory to access its enclaves of Dadra and Nagar Haveli from Daman. Portugal argued that it possessed a customary and historical right of transit over persons, goods, and officials, including armed forces, while India argued that any previous toleration of passage had always been permissive and may be legally withdrawn.<ref>International Court of Justice, ''Right of Passage over Indian Territory (Portugal v. India)'', ICJ Reports (1960).</ref>
== Background ==
The [[Portuguese India|Portuguese had dominion]] over some regions of India for a hundred years plus between 1505 and 1961. The regions, as a whole, were termed Portuguese India and included:
# [[Goa]]
# [[Dadra and Nagar Haveli]]
# [[Daman and Diu|Damao (Daman)]]
# [[Diu, India|Diu]]

After Indian independence in 1947, Portugal had maintained certain minor enclaves within India, such as Dadra and Nagar Haveli, that were completely surrounded by Indian territory. In August 1961, Dadra and Nagar Haveli were incorporated into India. Dadra and Nagar Haveli were merged within India in August 1961. Up to December 11, the [[Jawaharlal Nehru|Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru]] had issued the warning that "India's patience was exhausted". On December 19, the Portuguese control over Goa, Daman, and Diu ended as the result of an Indian military operation.

From 1954 to 1961, with the withdrawal of Dadra and Nagar Haveli from Portuguese control, Portugal's Indian possessions were no longer contiguous. Portugal was refused the right of passage to Indian officials and armed forces, and Portugal brought the matter to the ICJ in December 1955 in the form of an application.<ref>{{cite book |last=Thomas |first=T. |title=The Right of Passage over Indian Territory |edition=2nd |year=1959}}</ref>
== Proceedings ==
The case was brought to the ICJ on 22 December 1955 by Portugal<ref>{{cite journal |title=Case Concerning Right of Passage over Indian Territory (Portugal v. India). Preliminary Objections |journal=The American Journal of International Law |volume=52 |issue=2 |pages=326–337 |year=1958 |doi=10.2307/2195560 |jstor=2195560 }}</ref> Itrtugal asserted that it had a right of passage that was legally enforceable, founded on historical treaties (including one with the British Indian state of [[Pune]] under the [[Maratha rulers|Maratha ruler]]) and uniform practice during British India.<ref>{{cite book |title=International Law Reports |volume=31 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |year=1966 |pages=3–85}}</ref>

Portugal submitted that India had violated international law by obstructing its ability to administer its enclaves.<ref>{{cite book |last=Krenz |first=F.E. |title=International Enclaves and Rights of Passage: With Special Reference to the Case concerning Right of Passage over Indian Territory |publisher=Droz |location=Geneva |year=1961}}</ref> Its claims included:
# A right of passage for persons, goods, civil and armed officials between Daman and Dadra and Nagar Haveli, and between the enclaves themselves.
# India’s obstruction constituted obstruction of Portuguese [[sovereignty]].
# A request that the ICJ direct India to cease military action and restore the right of passage.

India raised six preliminary objections to [[Jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice|jurisdiction]] and [[Admissibility of a case|admissibility]]:

'''First objection:''' Portugal’s declaration of acceptance was invalid due to a [[Reservation (law)|reservation]] allowing exclusions at any time. ''(Dismissed)''

'''Second objection:''' The case was premature as India had not been formally notified of Portugal’s declaration. ''(Dismissed)''

'''Third objection:''' No "legal dispute" existed amongst the parties, as negotiations had not been exhausted. ''(Dismissed)''

'''Fourth objection:''' India was deprived of its right to reciprocity. ''(Dismissed)''

'''Fifth objection:''' The matter fell within India’s domestic jurisdiction. ''(Joined to merits)''

'''Sixth objection:''' The dispute arose prior to 1930 and was excluded by India’s reservation to the treaty. ''(Joined to merits)''<ref>{{cite book |last=Verzijl |first=J. |title=The Jurisprudence of the World Court, vol. 2: The International Court of Justice (1947–1965) |publisher=Sijthoff |location=Leiden |year=1966 |pages=359–401}}</ref>

== Judgment on Merits ==
The ICJ delivered its [[Judgment (law)|judgment]] on 12 April 1930. By a majority of 11 votes to 4, the Court decided that Portugal had a limited right of passage for private persons, civil officials, and goods necessary for the exercise of its sovereignty over the enclaves, based on accepyted historical practice.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Elias |first1=O. |last2=Lim |first2=C. |title=The Right of Passage Doctrine Revisited: An Opportunity Missed |journal=Leiden Journal of International Law |volume=12 |pages=231–246 |year=1999 |doi=10.1017/S0922156599000084 }}</ref>

However, by a narrower majority of 9 votes, the Court held that Portugal did not have a right to move armed forces, armed police, or military supplies across Indian territory. India was not in breach of international law when it restricted such passage.<ref>ICJ Reports 1960, Merits.</ref>

The Court examined Portugal’s argument based on an 18th-century treaty with the Marathas, and ruled that it conferred only right to collect revenue and not sovereignty. Sovereignty was established through Portuguese administrative control, later recognized by British India and tacitly accepted by independent India.<ref>Ibid.</ref>

The Court also held that India had a right to regulate [[Innocent passage|civilian passage]] in light of regional tensions, and rejected Portugal’s contention that India unlawfully restricted delegations in the 1950s.<ref>Ibid.</ref>

== Dissenting Opinions ==
Vice-President Badawi, Judge Klaestad (with Judge ad hoc Fernandes), and Indian Judge ad hoc [[M. C. Chagla]] were in dissent. They argued that sovereignty necessarily encompassed the right to use armed forces for administration, and restrictions imposed by India unlawfully curbed Portugal’s rights.

== Subsequent Developments ==
The judgment was followed by India’s [[Annexation of Goa|military annexation]] of Goa, Daman, and Diu in December 1961, marking the eventual end to the Portuguese colonial rule in India.

Dadra and Nagar Haveli was formally incorporated into India by the [[Constitution (Tenth Amendment) Act, 1961]].<ref>{{cite web |title=The Constitution (Tenth Amendment) Act, 1961 |url=https://legislative.gov.in/constitution-tenth-amendment-act-1961 |publisher=Ministry of Law and Justice, Government of India}}</ref> This amendment inserted Article 240(1)(c) which empowerd the President to make regulations for the territory, and confirmed administration under Article 239 of the [[Constitution of India]].<ref>{{cite book |title=The Constitution of India |publisher=Government of India}}</ref>

The '''India–Bangladesh cricket rivalry''' is one of the most intense and biggest [[List of sports rivalries|sports rivalry]] in the world. Matches between the teams are considered some of the biggest in the world in any at age level of sports. It's also called '''Asian Clásico.''' [[Indian cricket team|India]] dominated the rivalry from its inception in 1988 until 2007, after which the rivalry became more competitive in limited-overs cricket, with [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] managing victories in both bilateral series and ICC tournament fixtures.

The two teams have played a total of 75 times, with [[Indian cricket team|India]] winning 63 matches and [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] winning 9.[https://www.business-standard.com/cricket/asia-cup/asia-cup-2025-super-4-india-vs-bangladesh-head-to-head-record-in-t20i-125092300823_1.html] In Tests, ODIs and T20Is India has been victorious in more games than [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]], while [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] has won more bilateral series in ODIs.[https://www.wionews.com/sports/live-india-vs-bangladesh-2nd-odi-cricket-score-and-updates-rohit-sharmas-side-to-face-bangladesh-for-second-odi-after-2015-540762] In [[International Cricket Council|ICC]] [[Cricket World Cup|World Cups]], the two sides have met head to head in 5 matches, with [[Indian cricket team|India]] winning 4 of them. Both [[Indian cricket team|India]] and [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] have faced each other in the ICC [[Cricket World Cup#Titles summary|Cricket World Cup]], the ICC [[Men's T20 World Cup#Team performance|T20 World Cup]], as well as other prestigious tournaments.[https://www.icc-cricket.com/news/india-edge-out-bangladesh-in-a-rain-hit-encounter][https://www.cricketcountry.com/articles/icc-world-cup-2007-mashrafe-mortaza-scripts-bangladeshs-shock-win-over-india-129/]

The tense relations between the two countries, resulting in bitter diplomatic relations and a conflict that triggered Indo-Bangla geopolitical tensions, laid the foundation for an intense sporting rivalry between the two countries, who shared a common cricketing tradition.[https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7029406/2026/02/08/cricket-t20-world-cup-india-pakistan-bangladesh/]

After the partition of the country in [[Partition of India|1947]], initially [[Bangladesh]] was a part of [[Pakistan]], before it became independent, since then a negative view of [[Indian people|Indians]] has been born in the minds of [[Bangladeshis]]([[East Pakistan|East Pakistani]]).<ref>{{Cite web |last=NDC |first=Brigadier General (retd) Md Bayezid Sarwar |date=2025-09-26 |title=Heroic deeds of Bengali soldiers in 1965 India-Pakistan war |url=https://viewsbangladesh.com/heroic-deeds-of-bengali-soldiers-in-1965-indiapakistan-war/ |access-date=2026-02-25 |website=Views Bangladesh |language=en}}</ref> Till 2000, [[Bangladesh national cricket team|Bangladesh]] was an emerging cricketing power while [[India national cricket team|India]] was one of the most successful teams in the history of [[cricket]].

For her next directorial concept, Meghna chose to make a biopic on the life of acid attack survivor [[Laxmi Agarwal]], which she named ''[[Chhapaak]]'', (2020) that is about Malti, an acid attack survivor inspired by Agarwal. The film featured [[Deepika Padukone]] as Malti and was critically acclaimed upon its release on 10 January 2020.<ref>{{cite news |title=Deepika Padukone's Chhapaak begins, director Meghna Gulzar shares first pic |url=https://hindustantimes.com/bollywood/deepika-padukone-s-chhapaak-begins-director-meghna-gulzar-shares-first-pic/story-GvhYsFHZP9BwNbwARd5iXK.html |access-date=13 January 2020 |work=Hindustan Times |date=14 February 2019 |language=en}}</ref>

The film titled [[Sam Bahadur (film)|''Sam Bahadur'']] (2023), featuring Vicky Kaushal in the title role was released in December 2023.

== Controversy ==
Author Harinder Sikka has accused Meghna of cheating and ghosting after she adapted his book [[Calling Sehmat]] into the 2018 film [[Raazi]]. According to Sikka, after securing the rights to his book, Meghna made significant changes to the story, particularly the ending, and took a pro-Pakistan stance in the film without his approval. He said that she didn't allow him to see the director's cut of the film, stopped speaking to him after filming finished, and removed him from all film-related media promotions and credits. He also accused her father, Gulzar, of calling Penguin publishers and pushing them to delay the launch of Harinder's book by two months 'so that Meghna received all the attention', as well as pressuring the Jaipur Literature Festival to remove Harinder as a speaker. <ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/bollywood/letting-meghna-gulzar-direct-raazi-was-the-biggest-blunder-rues-calling-sehmat-author-harinder-sikka/story-3ghzvrTRrMzGtKNRP3euBM.html | title=Letting Meghna Gulzar direct Raazi was blunder, rues Harinder Sikka | date=25 July 2020 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/writer-harinder-sikka-launches-fresh-attack-on-raazi-director-meghna-gulzar-8242038/ | title=Writer Harinder Sikka launches fresh attack on Raazi director Meghna Gulzar, threatens to reveal texts: 'Uncle uncle keh ke bewakoof bana gayi' | date=November 2022 }}</ref>

There are approximately 175,000 [[Indian New Zealander|people of Indian descent in New Zealand]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Indians in New Zealand form fastest growing ethnic group|url=http://www.nriol.com/content/snippets/snippet1125.asp|publisher=NRI Online |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071012133614/http://www.nriol.com/content/snippets/snippet1125.asp|archive-date=12 October 2007|date=15 May 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nriol.com/indiandiaspora/newzealand-indians.asp|title=Indian overseas Population - Indians in New Zealand|publisher=NRI Online|access-date=21 May 2013|archive-date=13 August 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130813141411/http://nriol.com/indiandiaspora/newzealand-indians.asp|url-status=dead}}</ref>

== History ==
Bilateral relations were established between India and New Zealand in 1952.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.hicomind.org.nz/hcinz/india-new-zealand/bilateral-relations/|title=Bilateral Relations »|website=www.hicomind.org.nz|access-date=2016-10-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170721235929/http://www.hicomind.org.nz/hcinz/india-new-zealand/bilateral-relations/|archive-date=21 July 2017|url-status=dead}}</ref> India–New Zealand relations were cordial but not extensive after [[Partition of India|Indian independence]]. More recently, New Zealand has shown interest in extending ties with India due to [[Economy of India|India's impressive GDP growth]].{{cn|date=September 2024}}

The countries set up a [[Joint Trade Committee]] in 1983 and have had discussions on a [[free trade agreement]] either bilaterally or through the [[East Asian Summit]], but this has not emerged due to disagreements over [[agricultural subsidies]]. There is also some educational cooperation, with around 23,000 Indian students studying in New Zealand.<ref name="IHC">{{cite web |date=January 2013 |title=India-New Zealand Relations |url=http://www.hicomind.org.nz/index.php/india-and-new-zealand/ |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130430140317/http://www.hicomind.org.nz/index.php/india-and-new-zealand/ |archive-date=30 April 2013 |access-date=21 May 2013 |publisher=Indian High Commission, New Zealand}}</ref>

Defence cooperation has been more limited, but there have been joint naval exercises, and [[Indian Army United Nations peacekeeping missions|Indian]] and [[New Zealand Defence Force|New Zealand troops]] have served together in [[United Nations]] [[Military history of New Zealand#Peacekeeping and observer missions|peacekeeping missions]] in [[Kosovo Force|Kosovo]] and [[Sudan]].{{cn|date=September 2024}}

==Plot==
The movie begins in Mumbai. We see a man with a briefcase get into a van. He arrives at a hotel, where he exchanges briefcases with a second man in the lobby. The second man takes his new briefcase upstairs and delivers it to a third man in a hotel room. The third man then flees the hotel, escaping into a waiting car only moments before two men catch up to him. The car drives off but then stops. The driver shoots the third man in the head, takes the briefcase, and walks away.

The movie now moves to a year later, in Kerala.

Mahadevan, Govindan, Appukuttan and Thomas are four young men who live in a housing colony in [[Kochi]] named "Harihar Nagar". They are unemployed bachelors and their main focus in life is women.

Maya, a girl from [[Kannur]], and her grandparents relocate to Harihar Nagar, and happen to be Mahadevan's new neighbours. Upon discovering their beautiful new neighbor, the four men spy on her to attempt to learn more about her. That night, Mahadevan and Appukuttan try to watch her bathing, but her grandmother sees their shadows out of her window and screams, chasing them away. They attempt various other methods to impress her, but all their plans backfire.

One day, they bribe the postman to get hold of the letter she sent. They learn that Maya has come to Harihar Nagar to learn about the death of her brother, a boxer named Sethumadhavan "Sethu", which she thinks was a suicide.

Maya visits the mother of a friend of her brother's whose name is Andrews at his house. She asks Andrews' mother, to contact her if she gets any information about her brother. The four men approach Andrews' mother and pretend to be Sethu's friends. They manage to get Sethu's photograph by telling him they wanted it for the colony's sports club. Maya gets this information from Andrews' mother and meets the four friends. She believes them to be Sethu's friends after seeing his photo at their house. Thomas Kutty meets her at the boxing club, faking that he is a boxer after knocking down the other three men who now fear Maya's grandparents because they suspect them. Thomas Kutty almost tells her the truth about Mahadevan, Appukuttan and Govindan Kutty, and only did not name them (calling them pickpockets and snatchers). They get angry. The four fabricate a story about how Sethu had an affair with a girl, and make her believe it by saying that the bike owner's henchmen who assault them are those of the parents of the girl, who opposed to the affair. They fight back the henchmen after letting Thomas Kutty get beaten up for a while because of his betrayal of them, and Maya believes them because they fake tears and sadness.

Hearing that the four men are friends of Sethu, Honai kidnaps them to retrieve the briefcase on the pretext that he would let them leave in ten minutes. Maya, in search of her brother's former lover, learns of Annie Philip, a friend of her brother's whom he knew from the library. Annie is now a [[nun]] in a convent, and has adopted the name Sister Josephine. Annie reveals her history with Sethu. She tells her that Andrews' father was a businessman who was murdered by Honai's father and had built a business empire with the money stolen from Andrews' father. Andrews sought to cause trouble in the business to take revenge. Honai's father sold all of his assets and tried to run away with the money in the briefcase, but was murdered by Andrews on the way. Later, Andrews is found dead on a beach and Sethu leaves to Andrews' house, keeping Andrews' mother ignorant of his death. He gives Annie the briefcase. After returning to [[Bombay]], Sethu gives Honai a briefcase similar to the one given to Annie; when Honai opens it, he finds it is full of bricks. Furious, Honai kills Sethu. However, Annie is ignorant of the innocence of the four men and tells Maya that they are Honai's gangsters.

The four friends manage to escape, but are chased by him and his associates. Maya and her grandparents call the police because of the false information given by Annie about them. Maya and her grandparents are also kidnapped by Honai but the four friends rescue them. Andrews' mother finds out about Andrews' death from Annie, who gives her the briefcase. While Andrews' mother is cooking dinner, Honai comes to get the briefcase. Andrews' mother removes a fuse and the lights go out. After trying to find Andrews' mother, Honai unknowingly lights a [[lighter]] near the lit gas stove and burns to death.

In the end, Maya and her grandparents returns to [[Kannur]]. Maya gives the four friends the briefcase, which they open, finding it full of riches.

== Production ==
=== Development ===
After directing the blockbuster ''[[Ramji Rao Speaking]]'' – which dealt with issues like unemployment and poverty, relevant social factors affecting Kerala of the 1980s, Siddique-Lal chose to set their second film, in a more laid back and fun environment. They decided to make a film that diverted from the usual commercial film that revolved around a hero and a heroine. The story was developed by Siddique and Lal from a thought which came to their minds, about a group of friends who gets mixed up in an issue due to the lies they make up, to woo a girl.<ref>{{Citation |title=Siddique 17 {{!}} Charithram Enniloode 2188 {{!}} Safari TV | date=24 August 2022 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR-zToKHWoc |language=en |access-date=2022-11-01}}</ref>

[[Siddique (director)|Siddique]] and [[Lal (actor)|Lal]] had developed a story called ''Kallila Kolangal'' during their days in Mimics Parade. In the story, there was a character of a professional killer named Honai. The story was eventually developed by [[Sreenivasan]] into ''[[Nadodikkattu]]'' (1987). In the film, the name of the professional killer was changed to Pavanayi. Hence, the name of the antagonist in ''In Harihar Nagar'' was taken from the story they had developed.<ref name=":5">{{Citation |title=Siddique 18 {{!}} Charithram Enniloode 2189 {{!}} Safari TV | date=25 August 2022 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9efNN8fjyQ |language=en |access-date=2023-01-17 |archive-date=17 January 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230117203621/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9efNN8fjyQ |url-status=live}}</ref> The film was jointly produced by Fazil's brother Khais and Ouseppachan's brother Kuriachan.<ref name=":1" /> The film also marked the debut of [[Swargachitra Appachan]]'s Swargachitra Pictures, which distributed the film.<ref name=":2" />

=== Casting ===
Since Kuriachan and Khais were in [[Qatar]], they put [[Fazil (director)|Fazil]] in charge of casting. Initially, [[Siddique (director)|Siddique]] and [[Lal (actor)|Lal]] had decided on [[Mukesh (actor)|Mukesh]] as Mahadevan, [[Jagadish Kumar|Jagadeesh]] as Appu, Appa Haja as Thomas and [[Ashokan (actor)|Ashokan]] as Govindan. Since the directors didn't have phones at the time, they sent the executive producer to talk to the actors and book their dates. The executive producer came back and told [[Siddique–Lal|Siddique-Lal]] that everyone else except Jagadeesh was ready. The directors gave the role of Appu to [[Siddique (actor)|Siddique]], who was a mimicry artiste and had by then done minor roles in several films. A week before shooting began, Siddique-Lal went to [[Thiruvananthapuram]] for a discussion with [[Venu (cinematographer)|Venu]], who was the cinematographer. They chanced upon Jagadeesh at the railway station and asked him why he refused the role of Appukuttan. Jagadeesh however was surprised and told them that he wasn't even approached for the role. Jagadeesh told them that he and the executive producer weren't on good terms and used the opportunity to get back at him. The director duo then contacted Fazil and informed him of the situation. Fazil fired the executive producer on the spot. Then, Jagadeesh was given the role of Appukuttan and Siddique was given the role of Govindan. A new character, Cherian was developed for Appa Haji.<ref name=":1">{{Cite news |title=Jagadeesh almost didn't play Appukuttan in In Harihar Nagar: Siddique |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news/jagadeesh-almost-didnt-play-appukuttan-in-in-harihar-nagar-siddique/articleshow/77141796.cms |access-date=2022-10-07 |website=The Times of India |date=24 July 2020 |language=en |archive-date=7 October 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221007173225/https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/malayalam/movies/news/jagadeesh-almost-didnt-play-appukuttan-in-in-harihar-nagar-siddique/articleshow/77141796.cms |url-status=live }}</ref>

'''''Gaduggayi''''' ({{translation|Clever}}) is a 1989 Indian [[Telugu language|Telugu]]-language [[comedy film]] directed by Sarath. It stars [[Rajendra Prasad (actor)|Rajendra Prasad]] and [[Rajani (actress)|Rajani]], with music composed by [[K. Chakravarthy|Chakravarthy]].

==Plot==
The film begins in a village where Gopi / Pandu, a callow, is raised by grandparents, Bhushaiah & Parvathamma, who dote on him. He constantly pesters the public with his naughty deeds and irks the local vicious loan shark, Papa Rao, to whom Bhushaiah is also indebted. Meanwhile, in the city, Amala is the daughter of a tycoon, Koteswara Rao, and is Papa Rao's niece. Once, she visits the village and acquaints Gopi with a squabble. Later, she starts liking him after he shields her against harm. Suddenly, Koteswara Rao passes away, entrusting the totality to Amala and assigning his trustworthy Advocate, Chidanandam, as her guardian. However, the sly relatives surround Amala to usurp her wealth. They are her younger maternal uncle Gandabherundam and paternal aunt Kanthamma, who scheme to espouse with their sons Prasad & Buchi.

Aside from this, Bhushaiah fixes Gopi's alliance, which Papa Rao's ruse calls off by impairing Gopi, an alcoholic. Thus, he expels Gopi, who lands at the city where Chidanandam shelters him, via whom Amala, too, chances upon him. Now, she civilizes, molds him into an allrounder, and they crush him. Following this, Amala appoints Gopi as her secretary, masking their familiarity, and he mocks the knaves. Parallelly, Papa Rao evicts Bhushaiah's couple, who move in quest of Gopi. Due to Gandabherundam's debilitation by Gopi, he gives a ring to Papa Rao, who detects him. Hence, the heels abduct the Bhusaiah couple and menace Gopi to discard Amala's life, which he does. Plus, they are intrigued to knit Amala with Prasad. Whereat, they desert Kanthamma, who rushes to Gopi & Chidambaram, declaring Gandabherundam as Koteswara Rao homicide since he discerned his scam. At last, Gopi ceases them and shields his grandparents. Finally, the movie ends happily with the marriage of Gopi & Amala.

== Conduct and format ==
From the 2009–10 season onwards, the championship has been sponsored by [[Coca-Cola]] and was rechristened as the '''Coca-Cola MIHT''' for a period of three years. This also saw a change in the format of the tournament where there are three different levels before the selection of national team. At national level, a total of 12 state teams compete to decide the national winner state.{{fact|date=August 2022}}

The 32nd edition of Sub-junior National Football Championship was conducted in 2009 with the new format. Subsequently, tournament has been held from last three years with similar format.{{fact|date=August 2022}}

The three levels of the tournament are as explained 
1. District Level 
The district football association would select a team of 16 players from among all the young footballers to represent the state at zonal level tournament. This would be done through Inter-School competitions conducted between participating school teams in each district. 
2. Zonal Level 
All the state teams will be divided into 5 zones. The state teams from each zone would play in a tournament at a zonal level. The top 2 teams will qualify for the National finals. 
3. National Level 
Total 12 teams - 10 teams (2 from each zones) plus the last years winners and the home team would compete at the National finals. Each team would then play in a round robin format. The top four teams with the maximum points would advance to the Semi-Final stage, two of them would progress to the Final Stage. The winning team would be rewarded the Coca-Cola Mir Iqal Hussain Trophy. At the National Finals, AIFF would identify and select 40 of the most promising football talent. These 40 footballers would be groomed by AIFF to become the Official National Under-16 Sub-Junior Team.

== Championship structure ==
The NFC structure was converted into a two tiered championship format from the 2023–24 season. The state associations are eligible to participate in the championship through the two tiers of the competition played across the country.

== Reception ==
Shweta Keshri of ''[[India Today]]'' praised performance of entire cast and wrote "Saqib Saleem as Riyaz Pathan is seen flexing his muscles and going shirtless in a couple of scenes, Iqbal Khan, is seen hurling expletives as Zorawar Kalra.

Initially, A. R.

Rahman briefed his requirement of the song to her as "a train leaving the station that gradually picks up speed". She also mentioned that although the song was recorded inside the recording booth on a studio mic later on, the version she had recorded on the handheld mic was retained as the final version of the song.<ref>{{YouTube|id=JvcQmfauFGM|time=26m19s}}</ref>

He noted, "The music of ''Kochadaiiyaan'' fits in with the kind of film it is.

'''Elections for the [[India]]n [[States and territories of India|state]] of [[Jammu and Kashmir (state)|Jammu and Kashmir]]''' were held over October 1983.<ref name="elections.in">[http://www.elections.in/jammu-and-kashmir/assembly-constituencies/1983-election-results.html Jammu & Kashmir Assembly Election Results in 1983], Elections.in website, retrieved 27 April 2017.</ref><ref name="election commission">[http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/StatisticalReports/SE_1983/StatisticalReport_JK_1983.pdf Statistical Report on General Election, 1983], The Election Commission of India.</ref> The [[Jammu & Kashmir National Conference]] leader [[Farooq Abdullah]] was appointed Chief Minister.

==Background==
The 1983 Jammu and Kashmir elections cemented the political polarisation on religious lines after [[Indira Gandhi]] campaigned aggressively in the state, raising the bogey of a 'Muslim invasion' of the [[Jammu]] region, alluding to the [[Jammu and Kashmir Grant of Permit for Resettlement in or (Permanent Return) to the State Act, 1982|Resettlement Bill]] passed by the-then National Conference government, which gave the state's residents who left for Pakistan before 1954 the right to return to the state, reclaim their properties, and resettle.<ref>[https://archive.today/20141117120857/http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-10-30/news/55595345_1_jammu-and-ladakh-regions-mission-44-the-bjp Poke Me: BJP mustn't play the 'Jammu card' in next month's J&K elections], The Economic Times, 30 October 2014.</ref>

==Result==
Indira Gandhi's strategy yielded dividends in the 1983 state elections and the Congress won 26 seats, while the NC secured 46. Barring an odd constituency, all the victories of the Congress were in the Jammu and Ladakh regions, while National Conference swept the Kashmir Valley. The 1983 election established the model for any future Congress-NC alliance - the Congress allotting itself seats mainly in the Jammu and Ladakh regions, while the National Conference limiting itself to the Kashmir Valley.

[[Farooq Abdullah]] was sworn in as the Chief Minister Again.

Indian Ocean Gyre

2025-10-21T19:41:41Z

YaniraRolando4:

{{Short description|Major oceanic gyre in the Indian Ocean}}
[[Image:Indian Ocean Gyre.png|thumb|350px|The Indian Ocean gyre]]
The '''Indian Ocean gyre''', located in the [[Indian Ocean]], is one of the five major [[oceanic gyre]]s, large systems of rotating [[ocean current]]s, which together form the backbone of the [[global conveyor belt]]. The Indian Ocean gyre is composed of two major currents: the [[South Equatorial Current]], and the [[West Australian Current]].

Normally moving counter-clockwise, in the Northern Hemisphere winter the Indian Ocean gyre [[Indian Monsoon Current|reverses direction]] due to the seasonal winds of the [[South Asian Monsoon]]. In the summer, the land is warmer than the ocean, so surface winds blow from the ocean to the land. However, during the winter, these temperatures reverse, making the winds blow from the land to the ocean. Because most of the air pressure gradient is retained behind the [[Tibetan Plateau]], air pressure gradients over the Indian Ocean and the gyre are small. This results in winds of moderate strength, due to the protection from the full force winds blowing off the Mongolian high-pressure region. Because of these moderate, dry winds, the Winter Monsoon season in the Indian Ocean region is the dry season for most of [[South Asia|Southern Asia]]. Due to this seasonal wind cycle, the currents of the Indian Ocean, which make up the Indian Ocean gyre, are directly affected, causing reversal.<ref>Tomczak, Matthias & J.

It also updates the knowledge of readers by the Section 'નવું સંશોધન' means 'New Research'.

==Reception==
The magazine got mixed reception by the public. While at limited circulation in Gujarat and Maharashtra, where general public interest is in economic and current affairs, the magazine struggled in initial years of publication. Over the years it was praised for delivering quality content and now it is the only monthly science magazine published by private sector in India.{{citation needed|date=June 2020}}

Over the years a boat club, boathouse and boat service (with rowing boats and pedalling boats and a public ferry) for the public and tourists has become fully functional and is of aesthetic significance for tourism. Boat Pageant and Flower Shows are a regular feature in the summer season which attracts tourists.<ref name = "bit_steam">http://dspace.iimk.ac.in/bitstream/2259/599/1/543-554.pdf {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110721150302/http://dspace.iimk.ac.in/bitstream/2259/599/1/543-554.pdf |date=21 July 2011 }} Managing Lake Tourism: Challenges Ahead</ref> Bryant Park is situated adjacent to the lake.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.newindianexpress.com/states/tamil-nadu/2021/jul/07/kodaikanal-parks-closed-again-as-visitors-threw-caution-to-the-wind-2326720.html|title = Kodaikanal parks closed again as visitors threw caution to the wind}}</ref>

==Access==

[[File:Boating in Kodaikanal Lake with Mist.jpg|thumb|Boating in Kodaikanal Lake with Mist]]

A railway line extended from [[Chennai]] to [[Tirunelveli]] with an intermediate station at Ammaianayakkanur (later renamed Kodai Road) was built in 1875, to provide a gateway to Kodaikanal town and there on to the lake through a foot trek of 18 km from the railhead. The nearest railheads to the lake presently are the Kodai Road railway Station at 80 km and the [[Palani]] Railway station at 64 km distance, from the town. Madurai (at 121 km) and [[Coimbatore]] (at 135 km) airports are the closest to the Lake. Kodai Lake is well connected by road with regular bus services operating to [[Madurai]], [[Palani]], Kodaikanal Road, [[Theni]], [[Dindigul]], [[Thiruchirapalli]], [[Kumili]], [[Munnar]], [[Erode]], [[Bangalore]] and [[Coimbatore]].<ref name = "tam_tour"/>

==Topography==

[[File:Boating in Kodaikanal with Mist falling in lake.jpg|thumb|Boating in Kodaikanal with Mist falling in lake]]

The lake is star-shaped, centrally located in the town of Kodaikanal and is surrounded by lush green hills of the northwestern [[Palani Hills]] range, which is the main watershed for the lake.<ref name = "tam_tour"/>

==Hydrology==
[[File:SilverCascade.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Outflow from the lake goes over the Silver cascade fall.]]
An earthen dam was constructed to create the lake in a marshy where three streams flowed. The lake catchment experiences an average annual rainfall of 1650 mm. The climate is salubrious with summer temperatures of 19.8 °C (max) and 11.3 °C (min) and winter temperatures of 17.3 °C (max) and 8.3 °C (min).<ref name = "tam_tour"/> The out flow from the Lake forms the waterfall of 60 metres, called the Silver Cascade, 8 km downstream of the lake outlet.<ref name = "tam_tour"/>

== Flora ==
[[Kurinji]] ([[Strobilanthes kunthiana]]), a unique flowering plant is reported from the catchment area of the Lake. It is reported that this flower last bloomed in 2004 and that it blooms once in 12 years. Hill-plantain fruits and plums are popular in the area.<ref>{{cite web|author=Abdul Nazar |url=http://www.kodaikanal.com/ |title=Kodaikanal, Hotels in kodaikanal, Kodaikanal Resorts, Kodaikanal Hotels |publisher=Kodaikanal.com |access-date=2012-06-18}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://kurinji.in/ |title=Kurinji |publisher=Kurinji.in |access-date=2012-06-18}}</ref>

== Aqua fauna ==

The Lake has moderate to dense growth of [[macrophyte]]s of all types. The [[littoral zone]] of the lake is reported to be rich in periphytic [[biota (ecology)|biota]] associated with macrophytes. [[Diatoms]], [[protozoans]] and [[rotifers]] which are also associated with macrophytes are found in the lake. Many aquatic insect [[larva]]e and adults, [[molluscs]], [[cladocerans]] and the fish [[Danio aequipinnatus]], [[Rasbora]], one spot barb, daniconius and [[Gambusia affinis]] are reported. Rainbow [[trout]] and [[common carp]] are the main fish found in the lake. The fish yield as per records was 5.3 kg/ha/year.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.fao.org/docrep/003/X2614E/x2614e06.htm |title=Coldwater Fish and Fisheries in the Western Ghats, India |publisher=Fao.org |date=1992-04-26 |access-date=2012-06-18}}</ref> Recently two new species of diatom was found in this lake.<ref name="4 New species of Diatom from Western Ghats">{{cite journal|last=Karthick|first=B|author2=Kociolek J.

[[File:Trees around Kodaikanal Lake, Tamil Nadu, India (2007).jpg|thumb|right|Panoramic view of Kodaikanal Lake and the surrounding [[Kodaikanal]] town]]
The Ministry of Environment & Forests, [[Government of India]] has initiated a Centrally Sponsored Scheme called the National Lake Conservation Plan (NLCP), since June, 2001, on 70:30 cost sharing basis between the Central Government and the respective State Government, with the objective of restoring and conserving the polluted and degraded lakes in urban and semi urban areas in the country. On the basis of studies carried out, 62 lakes including the Kodaikanal Lake in [[Tamil Nadu]] have been identified as polluted and degraded requiring conservation.<ref name = "bit_steam"/>

Treatment and eco-restoration works for the Kodaikanal Lake were undertaken by the Government of Tamil Nadu with funds provided by the Govt. of India, under the above stated cost sharing formula, by the National Lake Conservation Plan (NLCP) of the Ministry of Environment and Forests, to abate pollution and, thereby benefit the local and floating population. The project envisaged Bio remediation, Sewage Treatment, Low cost sanitation Facilities, awareness, de- Weeding, Interception and Diversion Works, Fencing, Horse sheds, Data Collection and Dredging, at a total cost of about Rs 10.33 crores (US$2.6 million).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.tn.gov.in/gorders/eandf/envi-e-33.htm |title=Govt. of Tamilnadu |publisher=Tn.gov.in |access-date=2012-06-18}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.forests.tn.nic.in/PublicUtilities/graphics/PolicyNote0708-E.pdf |title=Environment & Forest Department, Policy Note 2007-08, page23 |access-date=2012-06-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090409233824/http://www.forests.tn.nic.in/PublicUtilities/graphics/PolicyNote0708-E.pdf |archive-date=9 April 2009 |url-status=dead |df=dmy-all }}</ref>

Ardās

2025-07-06T16:20:28Z

YaniraRolando4: quick update

{{Short description|Prayer in Sikhism}}
{{About|the Sikh prayer|the [[Balmiki]] practice|Ardaas}}
[[Image:BhaiSahibJiArdas.jpg|thumb|200px|Norang Singh, current head of [[Guru Nanak NSJ, Handsworth]], doing Ardās]]
{{Sikh practices}}
The '''Ardās''' ({{langx|pa|ਅਰਦਾਸ}}, pronunciation: {{IPA|pa|ǝɾd̪äːs|}}) is a set [[prayer]] in [[Sikhism]].<ref name="McLeod1990p103"/><ref name=britgurudwara/> It is a part of worship service in a [[Gurdwara]] (Sikh temple), daily rituals such as the opening the ''[[Guru Granth Sahib]]'' for ''prakash'' (morning light) or closing it for ''sukhasan'' (night bedroom) in larger Gurdwaras, closing of congregational worship in smaller Gurdwaras, rites-of-passages such as with the naming of child or the cremation of a loved one, [[Nitnem|daily prayer]] by devout Sikhs and any significant Sikh ceremonies.<ref name="Cole2004p8"/>

An Ardas consists of three parts. The first part recites the virtues of the ten Gurus of Sikhism from Guru Nanak to Guru Gobind Singh, starting with lines from ''[[Chandi di Var]]'' from the ''[[Dasam Granth]]''.<ref name="McLeod1990p103"/><ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/> The second part recites the trials and triumphs of the [[Khalsa]] and petition.<ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/> The third salutes the divine name.<ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/> The first and the third part are set and cannot be changed, while the second part may vary, be shortened and include a supplication such as seeking divine help or blessing in dealing with daily problems, but is usually in agreed form. While it is sung, the audience or the Sikh devotee typically stands, with folded hands, many with bowed headed, with some typically saying "Waheguru" after certain sections.<ref name="McLeod1990p103"/><ref name="Cole2004p8">{{cite book|author=W. Owen Cole|title=Understanding Sikhism|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ohYwDwAAQBAJ|year=2004|publisher=Dunedin Academic Press|isbn=978-1-906716-91-2|pages=8, 18, 104, 111–124, 166–175}}{{Dead link|date=September 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref name=britgurudwara>[https://www.britannica.com/topic/gurdwara Gurdwara], Encyclopaedia Britannica</ref><ref>''MacAuliffe, 1909, p. 331''</ref>

Ardas is attributed to [[Guru Gobind Singh]], the founder of the Khalsa and the 10th Guru of Sikhism.<ref name="McLeod1990p103"/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/>

==Etymology==
The root of the word Ardas is related to the Sanskrit word {{Lang|sa-Latn|ard}} ({{Lang|sa|अर्द}}) which means "request, ask, beg". It is also related to the Persian word {{Lang|fa-Latn|arzdasht}} which means a written "petition made by an inferior to a superior".<ref>{{Cite book|last=Cole|first=W.Owen|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Iup5q1wESdcC&pg=PA186|title=Six Religions in the Twenty-first Century|publisher=Stanley Thomas|pages=186}}</ref>

==Structure==
The Ardās is usually always done standing up with folded hands and is commonly preceded by the eighth stanza of the fourth [[ashtapadi]] of the bani [[Sukhmani]], beginning ''Tu Thakur Tum Peh Ardaas''. It consists of three parts:
#The beginning of the Ardās is strictly set by the tenth Sikh Guru, [[Guru Gobind Singh]] and may not be altered or omitted. It appears as the opening passage of Var Sri Bhagauti Ji Ki (see [[Chandi di Var]]).<ref name="JacobsenMyrvold2012p237">{{cite book|author1=Knut A. Jacobsen|author2=Kristina Myrvold|title=Sikhs Across Borders: Transnational Practices of European Sikhs|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=HtrWKPWBEXEC&pg=PA237|year=2012|publisher=Bloomsbury Publishing|isbn=978-1-4411-7087-3|pages=237–238}}</ref> The first part is an invocation from the ''[[Chandi di Var]]'' and recites the virtues of the Sikh Gurus.<ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/><ref name="McLeod1990p103">{{cite book|author=W.H. McLeod|title=Textual Sources for the Study of Sikhism|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7xIT7OMSJ44C |year=1990|publisher=University of Chicago Press|isbn=978-0-226-56085-4|pages=103–105}}</ref>
#The second part is several paragraphs recounting Sikh symbols, places or worship and values significant and related to Khalsa. This may be changed by reciting a "short ardaas". The Sikh devotee may include a personal prayer such as "[[Waheguru]], please bless me in the task that I am about to undertake" when starting a new task, help me with this problem, or add any personal petition for God.<ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/>
#The third salutes the divine name. This part may also not be altered or omitted.<ref name=britgurudwara/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/>

The end of the Ardaas (''Nanak Nam Chardi Kala, Tere Bhane Sarbat Da Bala'', "O Nanak, may the Nam (Holy) be ever in ascendance! in Thy will may the good of all prevail!") is also set and may not be altered or omitted.<ref>SRM, p. 9.</ref>

==Origins==
[[File:Ardas Fragment 01.jpg|thumb|Manuscript fragment of an early version of the Sikh ardas prayer in calligraphic, [[scriptio continua]] Gurmukhi script, c. 1730s]]
The "Ardās" of Sikhism was first composed by Guru Gobind Singh. He fixed the first eight lines and the last section, and these are considered unalterable in Sikhism. The second section has been fluid, revised extensively and particularly by Tat Khalsa in the 20th century. The Sikh Rahit Maryada has published an approved version of the entire Ardas.<ref name="McLeod1990p103"/><ref name="Cole2004p8"/>
